Hello! Welcome back, and welcome to this month's One Stamp At A Time Blog Hop! I am so excited to be doing this month's Christmas in July with these great designers. Do you work on Christmas projects in July? I think it's a nice break, plus it does help us get ahead...even if only a little, right?

I haven't really started purchasing any new Christmas stamps or bundles yet, but I did fall in love with the new Christmas Designer Series Pack in this year's Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog, Tidings of Christmas. It's featured with the Tidings of Christmas Suite, but I think that it would coordinate with SO MANY of our stamp sets, so I decided I would pair it with a stamp set I fell in love with last year, Perfectly Plaid. Not to mention, the Tidings of Christmas Paper is ON SALE this month!!!

Are you loving the new Soft Succulent and Evening Evergreen In-Colors? The color combo in this paper is just wonderful, and I love how these colors pair with the Sahara Sand, Cherry Cobbler, and Misty Moonlight designs.

I used a well loved, tried and true, go-to card sketch for this one. Do you have a favorite sketch? This is probably one of mine. I did something I don't usually do on a project though. Do you know what it is? I actually used three different patterns on this card. It's easy to do with these great designs, they are perfect for mixing and matching!

I love the way the Ombre' Gift Bag turned out! I will say, that embossing it with the pine pattern from the Wintry 3D Embossing Folder did make it a little delicate, so be careful with what you put inside of it, but it's SO PRETTY! I swiped my White Craft Ink Pad over the embossed areas and I just love the touch it gives. I created the tags with scraps from the card, super quick. What do you think about the little tree clip? It's just a small clothespin, and I think that it makes a great little truck. Just cut the trunk off of the punched tree, and boom! lol
